Selecting a Pump for Seawater Reverse Osmosis (.pdf)
From catpumps.com

Reverse osmosis (RO) desalination has become a significant process used in the purification of water. Selecting the correct pump is a significant step in a well designed and properly operating pumping system. Although the pump is a relatively small part of the overall cost of an RO system, expenses resulting from downtime and inefficiency can quickly diminish the productivity of the RO system and your return on investment. Due to the corrosive atmosphere and high demands on these sea water RO systems, special attention is required in the pump selection process. There are several key factors that will help to ensure optimum RO pump and system performance.

 


Products & Services
Reverse osmosis (RO) systems force water through a semi-permeable membrane to separate water from a solution of dissolved solids. Applying pressure to the solution causes water and other molecules with a low molecular weight to pass through the membrane.
Fluid transfer pump systems are used in processing, water purification and desalination, or liquid handling applications.
Fluxes are a chemical composition used in soldering, brazing and welding that cleans the metal surface, assists with heat transfer and helps remove surface metal oxides.
Water pumps are designed to move water that does not contain suspended solids or particulates. Applications include water supply, irrigation, land and mine drainage, sea water desalination, and condensate transport.
Industrial filtration equipment is used to filter, thicken or clarify a mixture of different elements.
